Bonnie Tyler - I Need a Hero (Lyrics)

  If you could pick up a microphone who would you want to be?  If you could choose any of your favorite singers to sound like, who would it be?

  I would want versatility and an endless range that I could manipulate, so I could transform myself into whatever I felt like at any given moment.
  I don't have the ability to convey the throaty, raspy quality many can.  I don't have that stand out personality in my voice that would enable you to say, that's so and so, or I'd know that voice anywhere.  I definitely cannot make my voice sound like this or have it last through the whole song when I try.  In truth by the end I'm croaking like a frog and need a hot cup of tea with lots of soothing honey!
  This is not a woe-is-me monologue, I'm just saying, there are a lot of things I can't do to my voice when it comes to singing.  But it definitely doesn't stop me from trying.
  Singing is one of my favorite things, I'm sure I've said this before and it won't likely be the last you hear of it.
  I love this song.  Not only does it take my memory reel straight to Footloose and my long gone crush on Kevin Bacon, but it makes me want to run.  It makes me want to run really, really fast!  And if I find myself really feeling the song, it makes me want to dance....(now don't get me started on who I wish I could dance like.....that is a truly hopeless dream!!)
  If you want to indulge this music lover in jumping back a few years with me AWESOME! (I sang that word for ya!)  If not move along!  No, only kidding, please don't jump ship on me now!
  Just because we're not good at doing something we love doesn't mean we need to stop!  
  Look out folks.....I'm gonna be croaking soon, but the tea and honey will help.....don't worry, I already put the water on to boil....!

Next up....Manic Monday by the Bangles!
  
Enjoy!
